Power Struggle

In Lord of the Flies and also the Power of One there are major power struggles. As most books and stories go there is a power struggle between good and bad, in the Lord of the Flies the power struggle between good and bad was between Ralph's group and Jack's. In the Power of One, the good and bad struggle have more people in it, this time instead of just a group its more of a race against a race. The Africans are displayed as the good guys and the Europeans as the bad. The power struggle is different because PK has to deal with most of the burden in the struggle as the Africans couldn't really do much due to the extreme racism in the area, Ralph never had to deal with that and always had Piggy and the twins by his side.
